3 Things about the Major

#1. We incorporate the flipped classroom to spend more time speaking Spanish instead of talking about Spanish

#2. Most courses incorporate a technology-based final project that is posted to YouTube

#3. Work to send all Spanish majors and minors to Costa Rica for a semester

Study Abroad in Costa Rica

As part of the Spanish major and minor, students now have the opportunity to study abroad in San José, Costa Rica at Veritas University.  

Specifically, we have partnered with their Center for International Programs which brings students from all over the world to learn Spanish.  

While there the students will take classes in Spanish (for the major-minor) and classes in English (liberal arts). This allows them to stay on track while abroad. Students live with Costa Rican families and can either walk to school or take the university shuttle.  

On the weekends, the students travel all over the country with the university. From rain forests to volcanoes to the Caribbean and pacific coasts, there is an infinite number of things to experience.  

Students can study in fall, winter or summer, but our biggest group of students student from January to April.
